Ailsa Course at Turnberry Resort Details

Golf at Turnberry

There are two fantastic links courses to be played at Turnberry Golf Club. The Ailsa course has hosted The Open numerous times, perhaps most famously the "Duel in the Sun" in 1977, and the Kintyre course also has a great layout. After undergoing some drastic, yet sympathetic improvements by Martin Ebert, the Ailsa Course was reopened for play in June 2016. Widely considered as one of the best courses in the world, the Ailsa simply must feature in your Ayrshire golf trip.

Ailsa Course at Turnberry Resort

18 holes, 71 par, 6474 yards. Links.

The Ailsa Turnbery Golf Course hosted the resort's first Open Championship in 1977. The competition saw an international duel between Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson as they went head-to-head to produce one of the greatest final days in Open history. Around this course, guests will find stunning natural beauty with exceptional coastal views – but do not let its beauty fool you, as its home to some of the most difficult holes in golf, notably the long par 3 ninth. This Turnberry golf course has long been considered as one of the best in the world so it's no wonder that it was choice to re-host the Open Championship in 2009.
